Valentine
Keemokazi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing has happened
Iβm just overthinking
I wish I could stop
I know that I canβt
You stuck in my head
And wonβt move like a plant
The day that I met you I knew you were special
Gave me your love but your love was a shovel
You dug up my grave and threw me with the devil
I wish I had the answers to the question
Are you a curse or are you a blessing?
Is our love real or infatuation?
Do you want me or just want my attention?
I wish I had the answers to the question (Yea)
Is our love real or infatuation? (Yea)
Valentine in December
You say you love me but you don't remember
My name, you cause me pain
All girls are the same
You ruined my life
Had me up at night
I brought it right up and you said itβs alright
But nothingβs okay Iβm not here to play
Iβm here for your love do you want the same?
I cannot stand none of these hoes
Hitting my phone I just leave them alone
Hitting my line and Iβm hitting decline
I only want you and baby you are mine
I cannot stand when you're on my mind
You run through that shit like every damn time
Got me in my feels while Iβm spitting these rhymes
You said that you love me, I said it right back
Asked again and you said itβs a fact
So why does it feel like our love is dead
Stuck in my head gotta stay on the low
Baby, I love you but I gotta go
